The location map
for the Long Island region ("locate
by period") places this British site in the middle of the William Floyd
Manor, who was perhaps the First New Yorker and the Fourth American to sign
the "Declaration of Independence". Although his manor was occupied
by British troops and his house used as a stable and the family there there
since the 17th century, the map should point to the Manor of St. George on
the other shore of the peninsula of Mastic/Shirley, NY."
